	Can anyone help - I have twins on 1901 census as 18 yrs old - have looked on ancestry and freebmd but cant match them up. Names of Ernest & Henry Miles - parents listed on census - Richard and Rosetta, they were residing queenswood lodge streatham (he was the gardner). Found parents marriage in free bmd wandsworth 1882. I have all of them listed on 1891 census as well, but can't find births of ernest or henry listed around the time/area. any ideas? judy

	Thanks John and Crista for your advice - had a bad day and the brain just wasn't working! (probably because I was at work while looking the relies up, and just couldn't think straight) judy
